Word has two different modes used for editing text – Insert mode and Overtype mode. Insert mode is the default and more commonly used mode. In Insert mode, text you type is inserted at the insertion point. However there may be times when you want to replace text as you type. The most direct way is to draw a line over the specified text. Click Insert – Shapes. Find the icon of straight line in Lines.

At last, close the toolbar after finishing typing the text, see screenshot: Insert or put a line over text with Field Code in Word. Here is another simple method, which also can help you, insert the over-line to text, please do as this: 1. Press Ctrl +F9 to insert the field code brackets, see screenshot: 2. If you’re operating on a Mac, the basic instructions for MS Word and Google Docs above should still apply — though you’ll have different keyboard shortcuts. In Word, you’ll hold down Shift+ Option+minus rather than the Ctrl+Alt+minus mentioned above.

Ok, so you’ve formatted your text to be two columns in Word and you’ve typed something in the first column. You haven’t filled the first column because you don’t want to. Fair enough – it’s your document – your choice.

But you do want to type something in the next or second column but however hard you try – Word won’t play nice. It wants you to fill column one before you get to fill column two – you don’t want to – so you’re at a stalemate.
